I agree, that we should not be ashamed if it's a scion, toyota, or whatever. I just think that rebadging to fulfill some sort of ultimate status is kind of cheesy. If owner of the car is trying to make a joke, that's on them, but judging by the exterior mods, I'm assuming he wants his car to be an LFA. Or to make people who are unfamiliar with the car think it's some elusive Lexus.

From a brief survey with my friends, only about 1 in 5 knew that Scion was owned by Toyota  |
That kit looks kind of cool, but is still a bit of a stretch, I like how it at least retains the Toyota badge. Really? They didn't know what Scion was?

Agreed.

Or you could just make your Scion into a Audi.
On a side note, that is a pretty cool spoiler if it was functional and didn't add tons of weight. |
Love how the trunk doesn't fit....at all.....this is a horrible atrocity imo.

I can't wait to see the GTR badge on an FRS.
